jRate is an extension of the GNU GCJ compiler front-end and runtime system that adds support for most of the features required by the Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ), including threading constructs with real-time constraints, asynchronous event handling, and memory regions.

It was initially developed at Washington University in St. Louis and is released under a license similar to GCC's GPL license that allows non-GPLed programs to be compiled and linked.
